PastPresent: 1906

This online immersive digital video game puts players into the fictional New England town of Eureka Falls, where they can choose to become either Anna Caruso, an immigrant weaver at the Boylston Mill or Walter Armbruster, a native-born middle-manager at the same factory. The game is designed to promote students’ historical reasoning, foster cooperative learning and intellectual teamwork, and teach the use and interpretation of primary sources.
